Fuck You Cancer!

As some of you may remember, my uncle was a walking miracle almost a year ago. Well, now we're hoping for another miracle on his behalf. We recently found out that his cancer is back for the second time. This time, it's inoperable. It is not only in his throat, but it has spread to his lungs. It was deemed terminal and he's been given a maximum of two months to live. He is also in the hospital fighting for his life, not only because of the cancer, but due to a bad case of pneumonia. This really fucking sucks guys. I hate cancer with a passion. Almost two years ago, I had to watch as cancer took over my aunt and I had to watch her slowly waste away until the day she died. I'm having to go through the same thing with my uncle now. I'm at a loss. I just don't know what to do, I don't know what to say to make things better. I know waking up isn't going to do any good because sadly, this isn't a bad dream, it's a reality. All I can say is, my family could use some prayers, encouragement, positive vibes, just something to get us through this. We are all taking this extremely hard. Thank you guys in advance!

  1. Best you can do is give as much support for your uncle and your family within the next two months, and know how much he meant in you and your family's lives.
    I wish only the best for you and your uncle, as cancer really does suck. Keep pushing through these hard times!

  2. Thank you Marcus! Sadly, that's all I can do at this point in time. There's really nothing else I can do since I'm not a miracle worker, otherwise his cancer would be gone!

  3. Haven't logged on in many years, but my grandparents passed away one month apart. It was hard for me because I've seen the struggles of my grandfather seeing how sad he was when my grandmother moved to the nursing home. My brothers didn't care much for taking care of my grandfather, but I did. I went to school, work and took care of them. The stress ended up taking a toll on my health physically and mentally. Life in school became nonexistent since I didn't want people to see how terrible my health was so I dropped out. But now I've healed up and am taking life as chill as I can. Seeing how both my grandparents went, at least they're in peace now.
    If you have time, spend it with him if you have time, because you don't really miss them until they're truly gone. I hope the best for your uncle.

  4. Thank you Screenie. I live about an hour away from him but I plan to try and make a visit to him really soon. I've been doing a lot of praying and I have come to be at peace with all of this. My uncle is always assuring us that he's content with this and he's ready when the good Lord says it's time. So, if he's at peace with this, then so am I.
